Hi,
I am trying to use a q number to get the details of a page in wikidata. I have searched
through the tutorials and found these that claim to work
wikidata = pywikibot.Site("wikidata", "wikidata")
repo = wikidata.data_repository()
item = pywikibot.ItemPage(wikidata,
"Q42").get()['claims']['P31'][0].getTarget()
itempage =
pywikibot.ItemPage.fromPage(pywikibot.Page(pywikibot.Site("en",
"wikipedia"), "Douglas Adams"))
However when I run either of these then I get the
EntityTypeUnknownException: DataSite("wikidata", "wikidata") does not
support entity type "item"
As I am new to this and also python I am sure I am doing something stupid but its
currently driving me mad.
Any help would be appreciated
Clemo
